Grain allergies & animal product allergies licked

“My Pit Bull Mina has suffered from food allergies most of her life. The allergies are so severe that she’s been admitted to the emergency hospital multiple times for internal bleeding. She has been on every diet under the sun – low-grade kibble, super premium kibble, single-ingredient, raw meat, home-cooked meat-based, and even a home-made vegan diet. With allergies to certain animal products and common grains, it’s been difficult finding the perfect diet. I tried V-dog after I learned they didn’t use wheat, gluten, corn, or soy (she’s allergic to wheat & soy). After a few weeks on V-dog, Mina’s health improved. She had normal poop, her muscle tone improved, and she is truly enjoying her food where before she would barely eat. She’s nearly 15 and I can thank V-dog for helping keep her young at heart.”

Riggins’ Amazing Recovery: No More Tremors

“I wanted to write you and thank you for the amazing products you sell. We have already placed our second double order of your dog kibble and expect to be making many more purchases in the future. A few months ago, one of our dogs, Riggins started having these bizarre fits where only his head would start to shake. At first we were concerned that he might be having seizures, but after tons of research and visits to the vet we have concluded that he suffers from idiopathic head tremors. From what we’ve read about them they are likely harmless to the dog but do produce a sense of stress and confusion for them. It absolutely broke our hearts watching him experience these tremors. He always looked so scared and helpless. It was getting so bad that he was having multiple tremors a day (usually at night while he was dozing off). Well!! I am over-the-moon ecstatic to say that since starting on your food, Riggins has yet to have another tremor. Not one! Thank you, thank you from the bottom of our (and Riggins’) hearts. Your product gave us our healthy boys back and we are comforted to know that they will be around for many, many, more years to come ♥”

No More Urinary Infections & Itch Free

“Beatrice is licking her lips in anticipation for her V-dog dinner tonight! Beatrice was always sick with urinary infections. She also had awful skin issues where she would lose patches of fur and would constantly need steroids to stop the itching. Not one symptom since she started V-dog almost a year ago now. We have never seen her hair so thick and curly as it is now, thank you!”

Piggy’s remarkable recovery

“I found Piggy as an injured puppy in the Dominican Republic (top before pic) on a volunteer veterinary campaign. He was almost dead; he was hit by a bus a month before we found him and he never got veterinary care until our team got there. I named him Piggy because he had no hair so he looked like a piglet. He still had his injured leg but there was almost nothing left of it. We were able to save his life by performing surgery right away and amputating the devastated leg. I adopted him and brought my new tripod dog back to the US. But he wasn’t getting much better in the US. In fact, his hair was still sparse, and he was inflamed all over. We went to vets again and again trying to find out what was making him so ill. We checked him over for allergic bug bites but never found evidence he had any parasites since coming to the US. Finally, I changed him to a vegan diet, and eventually put him on a purely v-dog diet. His recovery was remarkable. His skin recovered, his inflammation ended, and his hair started to grow fluffy and healthy all over. He tripled in size and grew muscular enough to outrun most four legged dogs (bottom after pic). He looked so good on his vegan diet, that he began a modeling career. Photographers like to use him for sitting poses because they can show off logos and designer clothes patterns more on his side that’s missing a leg, so it does not get in the way of the fashion pics.”

Wylbur – Before & After

“Wylbur used to have really bad allergies but since we started giving him V-Dog everything changed for good! His skin got better and his hair got soft and shinier. The best part is that he never had another allergy episode again! Thank you from the bottom of my heart.”

Less anxiety and aggression

Miss Pumpkin loves her v-dog Kibble!!! Her anxiety has lessoned significantly and so has her aggression towards other animals (the two are obviously linked). She’s a happy, healthy little girl thanks to her wonderful vegan diet! Thank you, V-dog, for helping not only my best friend, but all of the innocent animals out there who do not deserve to live in factory farms and die in slaughterhouses.

Jack’s Itching: Conquered

“When we got Jack from the shelter in January 2013 he was scratching all the time, biting his paws and butt, really uncomfortable. Now, after eating v-dog just a few months he is a calm, happy, silky, sweet dog! Every day he is healthier and happier! We are too :)”

Allergy cure / fast shipping

I have been so pleased with your product. I just ordered and received my 2nd 20# bag for my 3 dogs.
I am a vegetarian / mostly vegan – and have for years fed high quality dry food (like Orijen) or raw food to my dogs based on advice from holistic vets. Despite my distaste for the meat industry I wanted to do what is best for them nutritionally. They are my “kids”.
My 14 year old dog was seen recently by a new vet who suggested a vegetarian diet for his allergies (that have been long term). I couldn’t have been happier. While I would love to cook vegetarian meals for all 3 all the time (as my vet suggested), I knew as a busy professional that would be hard to maintain all the time, with 3 high energy breeds. So, I ordered v-dog to feed alongside whatever I had cooked and available.
My dogs are doing WONDERFULLY on V-dog. My youngest McNab/Border Collie rescue (1 year old) has finally stopped looking too skinny. My 14 year old Border Collie/Springer seems to suffer a bit less from allergies. I am thrilled to feed them something that is aligned with my own values while also meeting their nutritional needs.
I was so pleased that I ordered a bag late last week in a panic, not realizing I was running low, and it just landed on my doorstep via FedEx within plenty of time. So many thanks for the work you do!

Amazing transformation!

I just wanted to take a moment to share a picture of our girls with you, and our reason why we switched to V-dog!
Our Ava Grace is 6 years old and has had multiple skin/infection issues for the past 2 years. She has had irritated, open sores all over her body! We were told many different things. First it was chicken. Then it was grains. Then it was an auto-immune disorder. Along with this, she had chronic ear infections. She was on daily medication and at times, had a steroid added to this! It was nuts! She was grumpy, in pain, lethargic, and becoming overweight. We had come to terms with the idea that this was just always going to be. She was always going to be uncomfortable. It was awful!
Being a vegetarian, I myself know the healthful benefits of cutting animal out of my diet. But I was always under the assumption that dogs just had to have meat in their diet. After doing some research, I found this not to be the case! That same week I came across a picture of a dog on Instagram who’s human switched them to V-dog and they were healthier than ever! So of course I instantly went to your website! And a lot of the people on there were all saying the same thing! Their dogs also had ear infections and “hot spots” that just wouldn’t go away. But after a few weeks of eating V-dog…eating a vegan diet, they were healing, if not already completely healed! So I ordered a small bag that very night. I decided to see if they would even eat it first.
Ava and Katie are Chows, and Sofie is a Great Dane, and they all LOVED it! They instantly ate it! That does not happen in our house! We have some pretty finicky girls! So I ordered a large bag. All three girls have been on a vegan diet, eating V-dog for a few weeks now, and it has been great! Not only have Ava’s ears cleared up, but her sores are going away as well, and she does not act as though she is in pain anymore! IT IS WONDERFUL!!! She has started running around and playing like a puppy again! I’m sure, being animal lovers yourselves, you know how great this made us feel! Our little Ava Grace is happy and healthy once again! On top of that, we’ve found that Sofie, our Great Dane, is no longer our “gassy girl” as we would call her. We just assumed that was an issue for her because she was a big girl. But now we’re realizing it was the food! And we weren’t feeding them the cheap stuff. We were feeding them a well-known, highly recommended brand that costs about the same as V-dog! …Now if only we could find a way to make a V-Cat food! Our five cats also love V-dog! They actually go to the dog’s dishes and eat BEFORE they go to their own dishes. Thank goodness our big girls are cat friendly!
Thank you for your wonderful product! Because of V-dog, our little Ava Grace can be a dog again-healthy, active, and happy! And it’s wonderful!
